Captain Jack Sparrows!

hahahahhaha!!!!I just love the hell out of him!

I just wanted to write about the moments I got when we watched it later this afternoon.

As usual, Johnny Depp is phenomenal, I wasn't a great fan of his but I love how he portraits the Jack Sparrow character.

Well I'm not here to write a reaction paper and be that freakin spoiler... Just wanted to express how I loved his dreadlocks...

I love locks, i have a fine hair but after years of researching I got mine done for already 2 months now...

Got inspired by his dirty looks and beads and rolls all over his head so after the movie, I went to the thrift shop and tried to find necklaces where I can get beads with huge holes...

Me and my bestfriend went on looking till we found one which has a unique big bead and with tiny little ones.

As I got home I tried putting them on and yeah I got beads on my locks now. :)

Happeeee!

My Cheap Domain Names!

It has already been 22 days since I bought my domain names, they are both ".info" and there is a reason for that.

A long story...

My blog started when Lomography caught my attention... That is almost a year now, but because I got hooked with so much work related "busy-ness" my page got neglected. My First blog was named, lomostreet.blogspot.com.

Six months after the birth of my "neglected" blog, I decided to create a website from one of the largest free and easy to use web hosting site, Weebly and I published my lomo website, lomostreet.weebly.com.

Honestly, I wasn't happy with my URL's, but I couldn't do anything about them yet because of the low budget that I have. Being an online marketer I know that having your own domain is still healthier than those subs.

I kept on developing both of the sites over the last 3 months I still do, but I promised myself that one day "blogspot" and "weebly" should go... One day I will see my site bearing its own domain and that it's not just a sub-domain.

While I kept on dreaming, developing, working hard, learning and optimizing my site I visited GoDaddy.com and sought for any affordable promos.

I was happy to see that they have this $1.99 Domain, for 1 year and again, to me that's a lot of savings! Imagine me paying under 100 bucks Php 98.00 to be exact and I'll have my own domain?! I went to check it out and discovered that it will be a ".info" extension.

To me, it's nothing, my blog is personal, and so as my website. To have my own domain is what I am aiming for, it doesn't matter if its a .com, or .ph. What matters to me is I'll get rid of the sub-domain status.

After paying using my debit card, and some site configurations and tweaks on both of my sites came the birth of my 2 proud cyber babies:

www.lomostreet.info - My Lomography Website
www.dailylomostreet.info - My Lomography Blog

Yeah, I bought 2 domains and I got them for less than Php 200.00. I'll have a year to save for a".com" and a ".ph" one.

If you are like me, trying to set-up a personal blog, you might want to try this promo from GoDaddy. It doesn't hurt a lot but will make a huge difference on your web presence. :)

Ciao!

PS : I'll leave the banner right here. If you want some help on setting it up, just hit me a message I'll be happy to assist you. :)

Boring Swim

Oh well, I said it's boring... so nothing much to say...We had a swim in a sort of a kiddie pool... I really hate swimming in shallow pools.

Good luck to us all!
